PHILOSOPHY

The purpose of Edison Junior College is the fulfillment of the
individual. In accordance with this purpose, Edison Junior College
seeks to cultivate for the student a dynamic socio-educational
environment which will provide opportunities for each individual
to develop his potential. To accomphsh this aim, the college goes
beyond its academic boundaries and into the lives of the people of
this community to effect a reciprocal relationship. A democratic
community draws its vitality from the educated men and women at
every level of society. Edison Junior College offers the community
and the individual an opportunity to gain knowledge for more
meaningful participation in a growing community.

OBJECTIVES

In order to implement its stated philosophy, Edison Jimior
College has established the following objectives. First, we offer
courses paralleling the first two years of degree programs in four-
year colleges and universities. Second, we provide additional pro-
grams for students who do not plan to complete a four-year degree
program, but who can profit from a two-year program of general
education, semi-professional education of a technical nature, and
specialized education in certificate programs beyond the high school
level. Third, we provide a program which will enable students to
enrich their lives socially, intellectually, and culturally. Fourth, we
serve all segments of the population of the three-county area as an
educational and cultural center.

ACCREDITATION MEMBERSHIP

Edison Junior College is part of the Florida state system of
public junior colleges, and is accredited by the State Department
of Education and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Edison Junior College is also a member of the American Asso-
ciation of Junior Colleges and the Florida Association of Public
Junior Colleges.

HISTORY

Edison Junior College was authorized by the 1961 Florida State
Legislature and the Advisory Committee for the College was
appointed by the Governor on August 30, 1961. On the same date,
the Lee County Board of Public Instruction passed a resolution
establishing Edison Junior College. The counties of Charlotte, Col-
lier and Lee participate in the operation of the college through the
Junior College Advisory Committee. The first president. Dr. Charles
E. Rollins, was appointed January 17, 1962, and assumed his duties
on March 1, 1962. The first students entered Edison Junior College
in the fall of 1962.

The college moved to new quarters on a permanent campus in
June of 1965, and Dr. David G. Robinson was inaugurated as Edi-
son's second and current president September 14, 1965.

13

On July 1, 1968, the Edison Junior College Advisory Commit-
tee became the Edison Junior College Board of Trustees, the govern-
ing board of the institution. All three counties served by the college
are represented on the Board, the membership appointed by the
governor and confirmed by the senate.

PHYSICAL FACILITIES

The Board of Public Instruction of Lee County made the build-
ings of the Andrew D. Gwynne Institute available for use by the
college as a temporary facility until permanent buildings were
constructed. The new buildings, occupied in June of 1965, include
eighteen general classrooms, three science laboratories, a teaching
auditorium, a language laboratory, student food and lounge facilities,
library, and faculty and administrative offices. The eighty-acre
college campus is off Cypress Lake Drive, which is located between
McGregor Boulevard and Route 41, approximately eight miles south
of the center of Fort Myers.

Edison Junior College has completed Phase III of its building
construction program, which means that the Learning Resources
Center has been constructed. The Learning Resources Center houses
the library, faculty offices, administrative offices, and a large teach-
ing auditorium. It will soon house a multi-media resources area.

The college is currently in Phase IV of its building program,
involving the construction of additional physical education facilities
and the conversion of portions of two existing buildings into class-
rooms, bookstore, and student center expansion.

but whose records are unobtainable for political reasons may
be admitted by special permission of the college administration.

EVALUATION OF TRANSFER CREDIT

In the evaluation of transfer credit, consideration will be given
for differences in hour requirements on the basis of the intent of
the general education requirements at Edison Junior College. For
example, a student may transfer to Edison Junior College with two
sessions of English completed with four credit hours. (The Edison
Junior College general education requirement is two sessions of
English with six credit hours.)

GUIDED STUDIES PROGRAM

It is recognized by the Edison Junior College that there is a
wide range of abilities and aptitudes served by a community college.

16

Many students apply for admission to college with weaknesses in
their educational and environmental background. These weaknesses
can often be identified by test results.

A program of guided studies has been instituted by the college
in an effort to serve the needs of all the students of the conmiunity.
Students with educational weaknesses as evidenced by their high
school record, test score, and personal interviews will be assigned
to a development program designed to further identify and correct,
when possible, weaknesses in mathematics, English, reading and
study habits.

Students to be included in this guided studies program will be
notified before the time of registration and in personal interviews
will have the program explained in detail.

ADVANCED PLACEMENT

In order to provide greater flexibility and opportunity for able
youth to move ahead with their education, Edison Junior College
participates in a state-wide program of advance placement with local
high schools. The following policy will apply to the Edison Junior
College education testing service advanced placement program:

a. Scores of 5, 4, and 3 will be accepted for credit, such credit to
be assigned by the Admissions Officer in terms of the entrance

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS

The college reserves the right to deny admission to any ap-
plicant, to change any of the rules, courses, regulations, or charges
without notice, and to suspend any student whose behavior is not
in keeping with the best interest of the college.

ACADEMIC LOAD

Students may not take more than 17 credit hours per session
without the written permission of his academic advisor. Although
no minimum load is required, a student must take 12 hours or more
to be considered a full time student. Academic ad\asors will work
closely with each student in determining the academic load the stu-
dent should carry in relation to his ability and background.

STUDENT CLASSIFICATION

Students enrolled for credit in the current session will be con-
sidered CREDIT students.

Students who enroll for no credit in courses which are normally
offered for credit \vi\\ be considered AUDIT students.

Students enrolled in Community Courses will be considered
NON-CREDIT students.

TRANSIENT STUDENTS

A student enrolHng at Edison Junior College who is attending
on the approval of another college or university and who intends
returning to that institution will be considered a TRANSIENT
student. An application is required and also a statement of good
standing from the college to which the student is returning, and
permission to enroll in certain courses at Edison Junior College.
This statement must be in the student's record before registration.

PROBATION AND SUSPENSION

Any student who has not achieved an overall grade point
average of 2.0 by the end of 12 credit hours of work will be placed
on academic probation. If the student fails to bring his overall
average up to 2.0 at the end of 24 credit hours, he will be subject
to suspension by the Academic Standards Committee for a minimum
of one session. Any student who has been suspended from Edison
Junior College must petition the Admissions Committee for read-
mission in order to return.

AHENDANCE

Students are expected to attend all the class periods of the
courses for which they are registered. Absence from several meet-
ings of a course tends to limit a student's achievement and in most
cases results in a lower grade. As a result of excessive absence, a
student may be required to withdraw from a course or from college.
The determination of what constitutes "excessive absence" in any
course rests with the instructor in that course.

WITHDRAWAL

In order to withdraw from a single course, or from the coUege,

20

the student must complete a request to withdraw, or drop, a course.
This request can be secured in the Student Personnel Office.

The student who withdraws from a course, during the first
twenty (20) class days, will receive a "W" in lieu of a grade in that
class. After the first twenty days of class, a "WP" will be recorded
on the student's official transcript if he has satisfactory grades in
that course at the time he withdraws from college or drops a
course. Should the student be failing the course at the time of with-
drawal, a "WF" will be recorded.

A student who ceases to attend class, or classes, without com-
pleting a formal request to withdraw from college, or from a course,
will have a grade of "F" recorded on his official record.

When an 'T" or "WF" is received by the student, it is recorded
on the permanent record and calculated as "F" for the purpose of
grade-point average. A ''WP", or ''W", is not calculated.

No student may change from audit to credit status after the
close of the registration period. Courses may not be dropped during
the last two weeks of a session.

These policies apply to part-time, as well as full-time students,
and are effective whether the student withdraws from one course,
or from the college.

Summer sessions are shorter than regular sessions, and the
withdrawal limitations of days are proportionately reduced.

VALIDITY OF CREDITS

Any full-time or part-time student has five calendar years from
the date of his initial enrollment to receive his degree under the
regulations of the catalog in effect when he initially enrolled. If
his degree requirements are not completed during the five calendar
years allotted, the student must graduate in accordance with the
regulations of the catalog in effect when he is to receive his degree.

READMISSION

Former students who have not been in attendance during the
previous session or who have withdrawn from the college before
the end of the previous session (excluding summer sessions) must
submit a Returning Student Application and such other information
as may be required by the Admissions Office. Any former student
who withdrew with a cumulative or overall average of less than 2.0
may be readmitted on academic probation.

GRADING SYSTEM

The following grade symbols and grade point weights are
used at Edison Junior College:

A 4 points Excellent

B 3 points Good

C - 2 points - Average

D 1 point Poor

F 0 points Failing

I _ Incomplete

W - Withdrew

21

INCOMPLETE GRADES

A student who receives an "V must make up the deficiency
within 2 calendar months or receive a grade of F. The responsibil-
ity for making the necessary arrangements with an instructor for
the removal of an "I" rests with the student concerned.

GRADE REPORTS

After the results of the mid-session examinations are in, each
student doing unsatisfactory work in any course is notified of that
fact. He must then report to his instructor and faculty advisor
for guidance with a view to improving his work. Final grade reports
are mailed at the end of each session. The final grade is the only
one that appears on the student's transcript.

DEAN'S LIST

At the end of each session the academic dean will publish a list
of all regular students carrying 15 or more credit hours whose ses-
sion grades averaged 3.5 (B+) or above and who did not receive
any grade below C.

STUDENT CONDUCT

Edison Junior College expects its students to be mature and
responsible citizens. Students are expected to maintain appropriate
conduct, dress and personal appearance at all times, both on-campus
and ofE-campus. The college reserves the right to suspend or expel,
at any time, a student whose conduct is deemed improper or
prejudicial to the interest of the college community.

All students are expected to be familiar with the rules and
regulations of the college pertaining to academic affairs, social con-
duct, and student activities, which are published in the student

tration, he will be classed as a non-resident student and will be
required to pay out-or-state fees.

dence under this requirement.

dency as listed in the foregoing paragraph, but who have not resided
in a Florida County which participates in the Junior College Mini-
mum Foundation Program for at least six months, will be considered

STUDENT PERSONNEL
SERVICES

GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING

Student personnel services are provided to assist the student to
achieve the highest possible benefits from the academic and social
programs of Edison Junior College.

Professional counseling, financial aid, and other student services
are centered in the Student Personnel Office and supervised by the
dean of student affairs. The services of professional guidance work-
ers are available when necessary to assist students with personal
or educational counseling and career information.

EDUCATIONAL ADVISEMENT

The Edison Junior College is convinced that close student-
faculty association is consistent with learning and is of benefit to
student intellectual growth and maturity.

Each student, upon acceptance to Edison Junior College, is
assigned a faculty member as advisor. The faculty advisor is familiar
with the college program, the area of career interest of the student,
and will assist the student:

(1) in understanding the general education program of the college,

(2) in arranging a program of studies and schedule of classes,

(3) in planning for long-range educational goals,

(4) In explaining the work of the several administrative and coun-
seling offices of the college,

(5) in resolving difficulties encounted by the student in the edu-
cational program.

The student becomes acquainted with the faculty advisor
through interviews scheduled during the college orientation program.
Following the orientation period, the advisor is available to assist
the student during regularly scheduled office hours.

TESTING SERVICES

Testing is considered an essential part of the college program.
All test results are treated as confidential information and are used
in the best interest of the student.

All full-time students are required to complete the School and
College Ability Test (S.C.A.T.) no later than one week before regis-
tration for classes. The results of this test in conjunction with the
results of the Florida statewide twelfth grade testing program and
the student's high school grades are used to evaluate the student's
potential college ability and to help the student plan his program of
studies.

The Student Personnel Office provides an extensive program of
individual testing designed to meet the needs of the student. These

27

tests are available to the student at no charge, upon request or
referral from the faculty advisor.

There will be a $5.00 late testing fee for any student failing to
attend the scheduled testing period.

UNIVERSITY TRANSFER

Students who plan to transfer to a senior institution after grad-
uation from Edison Junior College are encouraged to consult with
the counselors in the Student Personnel Office concerning an ap-
proved course of study. The student should also write to the regis-
trar of the institution which he expects to attend for instructions
concerning course work to be taken while attending Edison Junior
College. A file of catalogs from various colleges and universities
is located in the Student Personnel Office for the use of students
who expect to transfer to a senior institution. Increasing enrollments
at the senior colleges make it imperative for students anticipating
transfer to begin a preliminary application in the fall session of the
sophomore year,

PLACEMENT SERVICES

The Student Personnel Office, in cooperation with the State
Employment Service, assists students in securing part-time or full-
time work in the area served by Edison Junior College.

Students seeking part-time employment should file an applica-
tion for work in the Student Personnel Office. An application should
be made as soon as the student becomes interested in part-time
work and the student should keep the Student Personnel Office
aware of his available hours.

Employment cannot be guaranteed to all who make applica-
tion. The number of applications for work exceeds the number of
available positions. Factors considered in determining the eligibility
of students for work are grade average, skills, and needs.

Students are reminded that attending college is a full-time job.
Those who are employed are urged to consider a reduction in their
course load. Generally students should not work more than 15 hours
per week while enrolled for a full load. The maximum number of
hours that a student may work and still carry 15 credit hours will
be 25 hours per week.

Graduates and terminal students will be assisted in job place-
ment upon request. References will be furnished to prospective
employers of candidates as requested.

CAREER INFORMATION

A file of career information is located in the Student Personnel
Office and in the Learning Resources Center for the use of students
and faculty.

Students who are undecided as to their immediate or long-range
vocational goals are encouraged to examine this information and may

28

arrange to take interest, ability, and aptitude tests to help in decid-
ing upon realistic occupational goals.

STUDENT HOUSING

The Edison Junior College does not provide or maintain housing
facilities for students. The Student Personnel Office- maintains a list-
ing of rooms and apartments located near the campus, and will assist
the student in finding rooming accommodations whenever possible.

or guardian must assume responsibility for housing accommodations.
The college does not assume responsibility for inspection or contract

college nurse, or Student Personnel Office, as soon as possible.

to the needs of area students by providing a number of scholarships

college grows in size and recognition. Information and applications
for scholarships and loans may be obtained from the Financial Aid
Office of the college or from area high school counselors.

The student may be employed up to fifteen hours weekly while
attending classes on a full-time basis. The basic rate of payment is
$1.25 per hour and the student may be employed on a full-time
basis during the summer when not attending college classes.

Work may be for the institution or for an approved off-campus
agency. On-campus jobs include work in laboratories, libraries, offices
and maintenance. Off-campus jobs are assigned in the elementary
schools of Lee County as library aide, teaching assistants, and in
physical fitness and recreation programs.

To work under this program, a student must be enrolled as a
full-time student and be in good standing, or be accepted for enroll-
ment as a full-time student. The student's eligibility for this pro-
gram is based on need, and preference is given to students from low-
income famiHes.

EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY GRANTS

A limited number of direct cash awards are available to stu-
dents who evidence need for financial assistance in order to attend
college. These grants are based on the financial resources of the
student and his family.

GUARANTEED LOANS

This program is designed to assist students from middle-income
groups pay college expenses without placing an undue financial
burden on the family.

Under this program a student may make application for a loan
from an area bank or other financial institutions.

Repayment of principal and interest begins when the student
has ceased his course of study. At that time the Federal Govern-
ment pays approximately one-half of the interest and the student the
remainder. Applications for these federal programs and additional
information may be requested from the Student Personnel Office.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES

Activities are an important part of life at Edison Junior Col-
lege.

A varied program of scholastic, professional, service, interest,
and religious organizations has been developed in response to in-
terest and leadership of the student body. All campus organizations
must operate with the approval of the college administration and
faculty.

CLASS ORGANIZATIONS

The freshman class and the sophomore class of Edison Junior
College are two organizations on campus to which every full-time
student can belong. Class elections are held during the first four
weeks of school and the members of the respective classes elect a
president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, one student repre-
sentative for every 75 student in the respective classes.

FRESHMAN CLASS

The freshman class is composed of all full-time students who
have completed less than 24 credit hours of college work. The fresh-
man class is honored during the first week of school at the student
government sponsored reception.

The enthusiasm and leadership exhibited by the freshmen make
the class a powerful force on the campus. Each year the class spon-
sors several social events and fund-raising projects.

SOPHOMORE CLASS

The sophomore class is composed of all full-time students who
have completed a minimum of 24 credit hours of college work with
a 2.0 (C) average.

Sophomore class unity flourishes during orientation week and
at the annual student government field day which climaxes the
event. The sophomores sponsor the annual Valentine dance and
other campus projects. The spring formal, which is usually the out-
standing social event of the spring session, honors the sophomores.

COMMITTEE OF 20

The Committee of 20 is a group of twenty students who are
selected each year from the up-coming sophomore class to assist
with freshman orientation, registration, and to serve as official col-
lege hosts and hostesses throughout the year. Selection is made on
the basis of leadership, scholastic achievement, and service to the
college.

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS

The following organizations which have been established for
the purpose of carrying out projects on campus and in the com-
munity are the Women's Collegiate Club, Civinettes, Circle K,
Collegiate Civitan, College Choir, Women's Recreation Association,

37

Players of Edison Junior College, Westminster Fellowship, New-
man Club, and Florida Association of Managerial Education. Other
clubs may be organized by interested student groups with the per-
mission of the Dean of Students.

HONOR SOCIETIES

Beta Omega Chapter of Alpha Mu Gamma, a national honor-
ary foreign language society and Phi Theta Kappa, a national
Junior College honor society are active on campus.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION

The student government, made up of elected representatives,
governs the Edison Junior College student body. Its function
is to supervise all student organizations, coordinate activities and
events, direct the expenditure of the student activity fund, confer
with the Dean of Students on matters of student interest and con-
cern, and to promote the general welfare of the student body.
The meetings of the student government are open to all students.

This division consists of the Departments of Business Studies,
Engineering and Technical Studies, Nursing, PoHce Science, and
Health Related Studies. Transfer and terminal programs leading
to Associate in Arts and Associate in Science degrees are offered
to high school graduates and adults of the tri-county community
served by the college. One-year certificate programs are also offered
in the Secretarial, Data Processing, and Police Science areas.

At present, the following programs lead to an Associate in
Science degree:

The Associate in Arts degree is awarded in Business Admin-
istration and Pre- Aviation.

DIVISION OF CONTINUING EDUCATION

It is our belief that our domestic way of life is our most im-
portant heritage and that it will be best preserved and improved, in
our changing times, only through the continuing education of our
citizens. It is the inalienable right of every citizen in our country
to be afforded opportunity for the highest development of his
potentialities through education.

To this end we direct our best efforts torward providing for
the intellectual growth of our adult students in the behef that we
may develop individuals who are well informed, are aware of their
rights and responsibilities, and will intelligently and actively exer-
cise those prerogatives for the good of themselves, their community,
and our entire society.

Evening credit classes are normally scheduled to begin on the
same calendar date as day classes. Any credit course may be
audited for non-credit upon payment of the regular fee and approv-
al of the instructor. It is possible to complete graduation require-
ments by attending only night classes. The college credit evening
classes are published in the Evening Bulletin each session, and in
general, the regulations governing day classes apply to evening
classes.

Other evening classes designed for enjoyment, entertainment,
and general information are also offered on a non-credit basis.
These courses afford a unique opportunity for individuals and

39

groups of adults to improve themselves. These courses are vital
parts of a continuing education program, and the fees involved are
nominal.

DIVISION OF GENERAL EDUCATION

The division consists of the departments of Humanities,
Science, Mathematics, Communications, History and Behavorial
Sciences, Health and Physical Education, and Guided Studies. The
division serves the general education needs of both transfer students
and terminal students. These courses are also offered for under-
graduate program majors, for elective credit, and for personal en-
lightenment.

Students are admitted to a given mathematics or science
course on the basis of prerequisites and/or tests. Generally, the
courses intended for scientists, physicians, and engineers are more
rigorous and more mathematical than those for non-science majors.
Laboratory experience is considered essential for both science and
non-science majors.

Mathematics and science majors with a good high school back-
ground should follow the sequence of MTH 106, MTH 216, MTH
235-236. MTH 090 JC is for those with inadequate preparation for
this sequence. MTH 105 is the general educational mathematics
course for the layman living in a technological civilization. MTH
053 JC-054 JC is required of students who fall below the admission
test requirements for other mathematics courses. SCI 101-102 is

40

specifically designed for the non-science major as a general edu-
cation science course.

Art majors are required at least 6 hours each of design and
drawing during their freshman and sophomore years. It is there-
fore recommended that ART 101-102 and ART 103-104 be taken
concurrently, followed by courses selected from painting, interior
design, commercial art, and ceramics.

The following courses are suggested minimum for music
majors: MUS 101-102, MUS 211-212, an appropriate piano course
concurrently with theory, vocal or instrumental instruction, choir
or ensemble.

The physical education program has as its purpose the develop-
ment of an appreciation of sports and games through actual
participation. Programs of study are available in health education
and for the physical education major.

Courses in history and behavorial sciences are offered for
majors in these areas, for elective credit, and as part of the college's
community service program. Credit seminars for teachers are also
offered upon demand.

DIVISION OF LEARNING RESOURCES

The Learning Resources Center is located on the second and
third floors of a new three-floor building which is the focal point
of the campus. The center presently has over 20,000 volumes of
books, together with non-book resources such as films, film strips,
film loops, transparencies, slides, records, video tapes, audio tapes,

41

and reading equipment. Listening tables for study groups and
individual study carrels are provided. A library advisory com-
mittee (composed of interested people from the tri-county com-
munity) and a college committee (composed of faculty and stu-
dents) both meet monthly and give invaluable assistance with
improvements and areas of emphasis.

Library cards are issued without charge to all persons in the
community who requests them. High school seniors are given the
privilege of using all of the facilities of the center. The Learning
Resources Center is open from 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. on Mon-
day through Thursday, from 7:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. on Friday,
and from 1:00 P.M. to 5:00 P.M. on Sunday.

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

The first session of a two-session course is a prerequisite for
the second session, in most cases. If the student is in doubt, he
should consult either the instructor or the dean.

Courses numbered 100 to 199 should normally be taken during
the freshman year, and courses numbered 200 to 299 should nor-
mally be taken in the sophomore year.

The college reserv^es the right to withdraw or discontinue any
courses for which there is insufficient enrollment.

The courses are listed alphabetically by subject area prefix and
numercially within each subject.

The letters "JC" following any course number indicate that
the course has been designed for junior college credit and not
